Default EDIT: Got the DiabloSport WOW!

EDIT:

I got the DiabloSport Friday morning and it's amazing! So much better than when I first got the Sniper! What happened was Wednesday night, I went to upload a tune and while uploading the tuner froze and flashed the computer. It lost the stock tune! Sniper sent a stock tune to reupload, but now the tuner itself just wouldn't work. This left me with a car that won't start. In result, I had my car towed to Ford Friday morning to have the computer updated. After that, I used the new DiabloSport to retune the car with a 91 Octane Tune which is great! I'm so impressed with this tuner! Next month, I'll buy a new tune from Bama also Here's pictures of my poor car on the tow truck... The phone took the whole picture but only sent partials lol.




So as the title reads...I'm getting rid of my Sniper Tuner I got back in November 07 and waiting for a new DiabloSport tuner to come in today. Last night, I was going to change the performance tune to the economy tune on my car for my LA trip this weekend. Long story short...the tuner put my car in Anti-theft mode, so I can't start it now. My stock tune is lost in result of the tune ****ing up. Called Sniper and they sent me a fix today which I'll upload after work. But according to their forum, this has happend several times to folks. So I'm getting rid of it. I'm interested to see how the Diablo works as I've heard great things about it like the SCT. I'd love to see the difference this tuner makes on my car. Anyone with experience with Diablo, especially on a V6. What are your key recommendations with this tuner?

Sorry to hear that! We have had excellent results with the Sniper software. I know our 07' has been reflashed at least 30 times

Well we were pretty disappointed because the DiabloSport has better options and puts out more potential. The Sniper caused a lot of problems and we're waiting to hear back on returning it under warranty.
